Pinto Bean Stew image

This thick, hearty stew is loaded with beans and vegetables and makes a wonderful supper on cold winter days. I sometimes serve it over rice for a fun change of pace. It also freezes well. -Gina Passantino, Arlington, Virginia

This stew is a great way to use up leftover turkey. I usually make a big batch of turkey chili after Thanksgiving and then use the leftovers to make this stew. It's a great way to stretch the turkey and make it into a new meal.
